How we transform your timber into beautiful frames


How We Transform Your Sentimental Timber into Beautiful Picture Frames / Photo Frames

Your timber has a story to tell—maybe it's a piece of the old family home, a slice of a beloved tree, or timber passed down through generations. At Mulbury, we take those stories and craft them into something beautiful and lasting. Let’s take you through our unique process of transforming your sentimental or heritage timber into stunning picture frames.

The Significance of Sentimental and Heritage Timber 

Sentimental and heritage timber holds a special place in many hearts. It's more than just wood; it's a piece of history, a connection to cherished memories, and a tangible reminder of times gone by. This timber can come from various sources: an old barn on the family farm, a treehouse from childhood, or even a piece of furniture with decades of stories.

Recently, we had the pleasure of working with a piece of Tasmanian Blackwood, brought to us by a customer who rescued it from the Tarkine rainforest. This timber wasn't just any wood; it was a piece with a rich story and deep personal significance.

Why Choose Timber Photo Frames?

Timber frames or wooden frames add a touch of warmth and natural beauty to any space. They offer a unique aesthetic that’s hard to replicate with other materials. Plus, they’re environmentally friendly, especially when using reclaimed or recycled timber. This choice aligns perfectly with our ethos of sustainability, giving new life to wood that might otherwise go to waste.

Each piece of timber has its own story, and we’re honoured to be a part of bringing those stories to life. We've had the pleasure of transforming timber from old family homes, heritage buildings, and even trees planted by loved ones. Each frame carries the essence of its origins, creating a unique and meaningful piece. 

Our Transformation Process - Wooden Picture Frames

Turning your timber into a beautiful wooden photo frame is a meticulous process, and we take great care at every step.

Initial Consultation and Assessment

We begin with a consultation to understand your vision. Whether you have a specific design in mind or need guidance, we're here to help. We assess the timber to determine its suitability for framing, considering factors like size, condition, and character.

Design and Customisation Options 

Once we've evaluated the timber, we discuss design options. Do you prefer a rustic look that showcases the timber’s natural imperfections, or something more polished? We offer a range of styles to suit your preferences.

Crafting the Frame

We carefully prepare the wood, sanding it down, and revealing its stunning natural grain. The meticulous process of cutting, shaping, and joining the wood creates a frame that not only serves a functional purpose but is also a work of art in itself.

Preserving Memories Through Sustainable Craftsmanship with Mulbury - Wooden Frames

Sustainability is at the heart of what we do. By using recycled and reclaimed timber, we're reducing waste and promoting a more eco-friendly approach to frame-making. Every frame we create is a testament to the beauty of reusing materials and preserving them for future generations.

Do you have a piece of timber with a story to tell? Perhaps it's an heirloom from your family, a piece of wood from an old home, or even a rescued slice of nature like the Tasmanian Blackwood. At Mulbury, we can help you transform that timber into a beautiful, timeless picture frame.

Customisation Options for Your Frame

We offer a range of customisation options to make your frame truly unique:

Colour and Finish Options

Choose from a variety of stains, paints, mat, and finishes to enhance the natural beauty of your timber. Whether you prefer a natural look or something more vibrant, we've got you covered.

Custom Size Options

We can create frames in any size to suit your needs. A4, A3, or whether you’re framing - a small photo or a large piece of artwork, we’ll craft a frame that’s the perfect fit.

Caring for Your Timber Frame

Timber Photo frames / Timber Picture Frames are not only beautiful but also incredibly durable. With proper care, they can last a lifetime, becoming heirlooms that can be passed down through generations. The natural strength and resilience of timber make it an ideal choice for framing.

To keep your timber frame looking its best, follow these simple care tips:

  • Dust Regularly: Use a soft, dry cloth to remove dust and keep the wood looking fresh.
  • Avoid Direct Sunlight: Prolonged exposure to sunlight can cause the timber to fade. Display your frame in a spot with indirect light.
  • Clean Gently: If needed, clean the frame with a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals that could damage the wood.
